Τα 12 καλύτερα φυσικά μνημεία Scourie

Η βάση του καταρράκτη προσεγγίζεται μέσα από ένα όμορφο φαράγγι, η ανάβαση στα αριστερά του καταρράκτη απαιτεί σταθερά παπούτσια!

A superb mountain in the far north west of Scotland, rough, tough and wild! The main approaches are from the north from the deep valley of the River Dionard, and then up rough pathless steep slopes - the way I went. There is a longer route from the south, bypassing Arkle and then followiing the long ridge. Either way, you are very unlikely to see anyone else on you journey.

Path on top can be very soggy (rather a marsh), so make sure to have adequate footwear. Same goes for the path from top to bottom, better to use the road when wet. Path at the bottom of the falls is better but it's scrambling and can be slippery too. But the view is worth it, beautiful waterfall.

Quite a popular little hike, so it's quite busy. The caves aren't really that impressive - apart from their age and the finds, they're quite small - but there's a really strong spring on the way, which basically creates a fairly large stream on the side of the path.

Great caves! They're obviously part of a system that you can descend into when you have experience.

to get here from the roadside car park, boggy land is traversed and waterproof footwear is recommend. we walked in Jun 23 after 7weeks unusually dry weather and it was still causing wet socks! Other parts higher up mostly dried out.

walk beyond the highlight point, following path and scramble down to get glimpse of upper section of waterfall...

Lower Traligill Cave is the main sink for the River Traligill from Gleann Dubh. In wet weather the cave overflows and resurges, rapidly flooding the valley below. The entrance is visible from the Glenbain track, a broad arch with gravel and boulders on the floor.
